FAQs: Deep Sentinel Construction Site Security
Why is construction site security important?
Theft is a real and extremely common threat to all construction sites. According to the National Equipment Register, the average cost of a single instance of equipment theft is $30,000. Beyond equipment, thieves may also target your tools, lumber, copper, and other materials. You’re more likely to experience theft and vandalism at your construction site than you are to experience fire or natural disasters. The difference? Crime is preventable.
Stop thieves, vandals, loiterers, and more in their tracks with proactive construction site security monitoring.

How do Deep Sentinel guards prevent crime at my construction site?
Once Deep Sentinel’s cameras detect security risks at your construction site, they instantly stream the video feed to remote guards for live security camera monitoring. The guards can then intervene through your camera’s two-way audio, set off a loud siren, and contact law enforcement in seconds. Learn more about how the security system works here.
Can I view footage and talk to visitors myself?
By design, our construction security solutions are completely hands-off. The Deep Sentinel guards can protect every inch of your property while you focus on other matters.
Of course, some managers want full system access. Through the Deep Sentinel mobile app, you see live and recorded footage from your job site security cameras. You can also talk and listen to anyone on the property the same way our guards do. If your employees need access, you can add multiple user accounts and set up user permissions for each account.
How do the guards know whether an employee or a criminal is on my property?
Since our guards provide after-hours construction monitoring, they’re assuming that no one (including your employees) will be on the premises. When someone is on the property during your custom monitoring hours, the guards will immediately assess the situation. If the behavior is suspicious or criminal, a guard will intervene, sound an alarm, and contact your local police department in seconds.
If the guard team witnesses “non-threatening” behavior, such as an employee locking up, a guard will come onto the speaker in a non-elevated manner addressing the subject’s reason for being on the property. The employee will have a chance to explain that they do in fact belong on the premises. They’ll also be asked to recite your business’s safe word, a unique PIN that allows employees to securely verify themselves.
What is the installation process?
Our wireless camera systems, designed for smaller properties, can be installed on your own in under 30 minutes. If you’re interested in a hard-wired PoE camera system or prefer professional installation, we have a network of home security installers throughout the country. Give us a call and we’ll happily connect you with an installer in your area.
What is the required agreement length for after-hours live guard surveillance?
Deep Sentinel only requires a 1-year commitment. This is significantly less than other construction security solutions on the market. We’re confident you’ll be satisfied with our award-winning service. You can also try out our construction site security systems risk-free with our 30-day money-back guarantee.

- After-Hours Monitoring: Businesses set custom monitoring hours in the Deep Sentinel app. These hours can easily be changed with the click of a button.
- Indoor Camera Installation Permitted: Unlike our residential customers, you can place your job site security cameras indoors upon approval to protect your property inside and out.
